The condo was everything we expected and more. The bathroom updates had a spa like feeling. All the rooms were large and we loved the extra large lanai. We were able to whale watch from the deck and ate every meal outside. The kitchen was supplied with everything we needed right down to the cooler we used almost everyday. The kitchen could use an update but still met our needs. We stayed for 2 weeks in this condo with another couple. We talked to some friends who were in the same complex as us but one floor down. He rated their condo 2/10 and ours 9/10.

This is a fantastic condo with an equally remarkable view. Our family of five had plenty of room. This location is very near shopping and good food. Both in walking distance. With a little drive you have a host of activities to choose from.

The condo was very clean, well decorated and had many amenities. The wi-fi was outstanding. The furniture was very comfortable. The view from the lani was outstanding. The kitchen was well furnished with many items. The appliances all worked well. The library was well-stocked. The only negative thing during the time we were there, was the noise from the construction workers upstairs. The noise continued for four days and was extremely bad the last two days. It made it uncomfortable to relax and rest in the condo. The noise factor is why we rated this as four star instead of the five star.

Aloha William and Lorraine,<br />

We look forward to your return trip to the Big Island and our condo so that you can completely enjoy your next stay. Mahalo for your understanding of the unforeseen delay the owners above incurred as they were to have completed in October. As with most renovations it takes longer and usually more funds than one plans on. We hope the owners above have now completed their renovations as they are due to move in at the end of November.<br />

Aloha and Mahalo,<br />

We thought the Condo was very wonderful, well decorated, clean and roomy. It exceeded what were were expecting. We were expecially appreciative of the extra spices and kitchen things that normally are missing from previous rentals . The only thing lacking was extra linens for the living room bed. We had reserved the condo for three people and required three beds (one of the reasons we chose a sleep 6 condo). Our third guest lived in the islands and had brought a sleeping bag just by chance so we were OK, but would have preferred that there had been lines for his bed. There was also more traffic noise than we had anticipated from the resort

Aloha Geraldine Hankins,<br />
Were pleased to hear that our condo 10-201 at Kona Coast Resort exceeded your expectations and everything worked out well during your 4 night stay with us. I wish we could have assisted you and certainly would have preferred it, had we been informed of your need of a third bed. The condo was rented for 2 beds only (a King & a Queen size) sleeps 4 guests and we do offer a sofa-sleeper for (2 additional guests) for an additional fee as stated in the Policies and Web Page. Please in the future when booking make the owner aware of your intent of use of property as it will make for your stay more complete and no surprises for anyone. Kona Coast Resort is a large property with 2 pools, Jacuzzis, Tennis Courts, Restaurant, workout room, activities center and many services for our guests and can be very busy at times. We hope you enjoyed some of the many amenities that it offered you.<br />

We travelled to Kona for an outrigger canoe race. The condo was absolutely perfect for team dinners!! Kitchen well-appointed, lanai large and facing the sunset, great bbq on the lanai, dining room table for all. It's a really big condo!! Washer & dryer, dishwasher, nice evening breeze. Would be a nice place for a family get-away also.

We have stayed in Kona Coast Resort before, but this condo was bigger than the ones we have stayed before. It also was very quiet, has a beautiful view from the lanai and is easy to check in. No hassle to pick up the keys and signing up papers. Key box code is a great thing! We had to stay an extra night due to a canceled flight and that was not a problem, we just booked another night and went right back.
This is a great condo for a family or 2 couples... clean, spacious and easy to access!

This was by far the best condo we have EVER stayed in. The owners provided all the necessary information a few weeks prior to the trip and then contacted us a couple of days before arrival to make sure we had all the information we needed. Directions were easy to follow and the coded lockbox ensured it was easy to get in and we never locked ourselves out. The condo itself was beautifully constructed, furnished and decorated, with pictures and art work that gave it a warm, welcoming feel. Although the entire condo was woonderful, the bathrooms deserve special mention. Spacious layouts, beutiful tile work and the rolled river rock floors int he showers are a great touch!
The kitchen was a delight with Island-themed dishes and every cooking utensil imaginable. We hosted a number of dinner parties for local friends and all were very impressed with how at home they felt there. They were also envious of the spectacular sunsets they enjoyed from the dining room and the lanai. The condo stayed pleasantly cool with its' East to West exposure capturing breezes off the ocean ( I swear best location in the whole complex). In the mornings we watched whales breaching and every evening we watched the sunset from the lanai before firing up the bar-b-que for dinner. Although we were on vacation, we have 24/7 type jobs so the wireless connectivity allowed us to check in and avert an insurmountable amount of e-mails upon our return to reality.
The resort property had two lovely pools, three hot tubs, two tennis courts, and a small workout facility. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The grocery and drug stores were a five minute walk and Kahalu'u Beach with its' friendly fish and abundance of sea turtles was a 10 minute walk. Kona town is a 10 minute drive. Despite the convenient location, the condo was incredibly quiet with no noise from Ali'i Drive.
There is nothing I would change about this condo or the location. It was perfect!

there including beach and pool toys, cooking spices
and condiments, internet and entertainment.
The condo is very well kept and very comfortable. We

This condo was absolutely fantastic! We stayed for about a week and it truly felt like home. Having the "extras" like beach towels, sand mats, ice chests etc really made life easier. The condo was in wonderful condition, and it's so large and spacious. We have stayed at this complex many times before and this unit was by far the best. We will definitely be back!

We had an absolutely fabulous week in this condo! It was clean, decorated very nicely, peaceful, and quiet. It was a joy to wake up in the morning, sit outside drinking our coffee, and look out towards the water. After spending a week in a hotel on Oahu, this was a much welcomed change of pace. My mother fell in love with the floorplan and is still asking to this day when we are going back! There is a grocery store close by and it is convenient to just about all the activities available on the Big Island. We would definitely recommend a stay here!

We had a great week in Kona with two small children. The unit was
spacious and roomy with a full kitchen to cater to most family needs.
Conveniently located close to the gate of the complex, but no noise of
traffic. The sunset from the Lanai is quite a sight, and makes you feel
as though you own a piece of paradise, for a modest price. Keauhou is
a nice quiet location, just the right distance from Kailua so that you
don't feel too secluded, but have the luxury of silence at night at the
same time. Groceries and daily necessities are just across the street
at the Keauhou Shopping center, where you can just about find
anything you may want during a one week vacation. A 10 minute jog
down to the beach is great getting down, but the hill climb up can be
a challenge if you jog too far down Ali'i drive. Overall, it's good fun for
the kids and family.

Would we stay here again? With out hesitation, we even left our boogie boards there to see if they survive till we can make it back again. Hopefully sooner than later.

We had a great stay at the Kona Coast Resort 10-201 in Keauhou with all of the comforts of home. Large lanai with an outdoor gas grill. KTA, local grocery store, and Longs are located within walking distance to the property. Kahulu'u is the closest beach with great snorkeling. We visited in April, so eventhough there wasn't any air conditioning, the ceiling fans provided adequate air circulation. There's a pool that's great for little ones and you can get towels there. We can't wait to return!
(Note: In the description it mentions there are no steps to/from unit. There are actually a few steps down to the unit from the parking area.)
